In mid-June this year, a group of French walkers took the boat to Elafonisi, and around 11.15am set off along the E4 path towards Paleochora. By early afternoon temperatures had reached over 40c (104f) in the shade, and on this route there is virtually none, and no water either, unless you can locate the spring above Agios Ioannis church (which this year may well be dry.) When they reached the cantina at Krios beach c. 4.30pm, several were suffering from heat exhaustion and severe dehydration, one so seriously he had to be taken by ambulance to Paleochora, and from there air-lifted by helicopter to Chania hospital, where fortunately he made a full recovery.<\/p><div class=\"rxpne69f2fefc36fa5\" ><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\n<!-- convertri page leaderboard -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:728px;height:90px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1583078900392636\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"4520084506\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">\r\n.rxpne69f2fefc36fa5 {\r\nmargin: 5px;padding: 0px;\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 1201px) {\r\n.rxpne69f2fefc36fa5 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 993px) and (max-width: 1200px) {\r\n.rxpne69f2fefc36fa5 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 769px) and (max-width: 992px) {\r\n.rxpne69f2fefc36fa5 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 768px) {\r\n.rxpne69f2fefc36fa5 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (max-width: 767px) {\r\n.rxpne69f2fefc36fa5 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n<\/style>\r\n\n<p>Walking in August is of course quite feasible with an early start. The 6.15am KTEL bus to Omalos gives access not only to Samaria, but also to the Figou and Agia Irini gorges, above them the high-level E4 path to Koustoyerako, and lower down, the Kambanos gorge and Kamaria valley, although all these would result in a hot afternoon in Agia Roumeli or Sougia, albeit in shade and sea whilst waiting for the ferry back to Paleochora.<\/p>\n<p>The early morning (7.30am) bus to Chania will drop you off at Spaniakos, Vlithias, Plemeniana,<br \/>\nKandanos, Floria, Mesavlia and Kakopetros for walks described in the \u201cExplore\u201d series, returning on one of the buses leaving Chania at 10.45am or 12.45pm, (or an earlier one at 8.45am.)<\/p>\n<p>Alternatively, here&#8217;s a short walk close to Paleochora, best enjoyed in the late afternoon or evening as the day begins to cool down. Drive, or take a taxi, to the turning for Vasilaki, just 3km NW from Paleochora on the road to Voutas.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/thepaleochorasite.com\/bobsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Vasilaki-sign.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1429\" src=\"http:\/\/thepaleochorasite.com\/bobsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Vasilaki-sign-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Vasilaki sign\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thepaleochorasite.com\/bobsblog\/main\/domains\/thepaleochorasite.com\/public_html\/bobsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Vasilaki-sign-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thepaleochorasite.com\/bobsblog\/main\/domains\/thepaleochorasite.com\/public_html\/bobsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Vasilaki-sign-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thepaleochorasite.com\/bobsblog\/main\/domains\/thepaleochorasite.com\/public_html\/bobsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Vasilaki-sign.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The track along to the few houses of Vasilaki gives good views into the valley of Tsaliana below, and north to the high mountains either side of Sarakina (see &#8216;Explore&#8217; September 2015).<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1428\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/thepaleochorasite.com\/bobsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Vasilaki-grapes.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1428\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1428\" src=\"http:\/\/thepaleochorasite.com\/bobsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Vasilaki-grapes-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Vasilaki grapes\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thepaleochorasite.com\/bobsblog\/main\/domains\/thepaleochorasite.com\/public_html\/bobsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Vasilaki-grapes-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thepaleochorasite.com\/bobsblog\/main\/domains\/thepaleochorasite.com\/public_html\/bobsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Vasilaki-grapes-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thepaleochorasite.com\/bobsblog\/main\/domains\/thepaleochorasite.com\/public_html\/bobsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Vasilaki-grapes.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1428\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Vasilaki grapes<\/p><\/div>\n<p>This is rural Crete, albeit only a (long) stone&#8217;s throw from popular tourist beaches, and you will pass sheep, goats, chickens and barking (but safe) dogs as you leave the \u201cvillage\u201d, through a gate, and into open country.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1430\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/thepaleochorasite.com\/bobsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Vasilaki.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1430\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1430\" src=\"http:\/\/thepaleochorasite.com\/bobsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Vasilaki-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Vasilaki\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thepaleochorasite.com\/bobsblog\/main\/domains\/thepaleochorasite.com\/public_html\/bobsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Vasilaki-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thepaleochorasite.com\/bobsblog\/main\/domains\/thepaleochorasite.com\/public_html\/bobsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Vasilaki-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thepaleochorasite.com\/bobsblog\/main\/domains\/thepaleochorasite.com\/public_html\/bobsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Vasilaki.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1430\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Vasilaki<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Below left is the blue-roofed Agios Georgios church, but save this for the way back and hope to catch the sunset.
